[dude with glasses in a communist t-shirt, arguing] I’m the only leftist here, your opinions are TRASH
[dude holding a theory book on smug, arguing] Read theory you losers, you’re all WRONG
[dude in an anarchist hoodie, arguing] Nuh-uh, I’m the only leftist here, you’re SHITLIBS
[the three dudes are now caught in a cartoon fight, glasses gone flying, punches everywhere, while a firing squad of nazis are targeting them with rifles]
[a confused nazi asks] Why… why are they still arguing?
“Voting is actually bad” Tankies 🤝 Nazis
whelp, straight to infighting.
This is why far “left” and “right” are itself misguided labels. It’s more like far opposite on the other end where they meet.
Horseshoe theory is literally just
Okay yeah I see what you mean. I rescind my original post.
Yeah, that really nails it.
For almost all of human history, the current center of the the western Overton window would have been considered far, far left. Does that mean that monarchism and feudalism is the true center, and liberalism is actually the same as being to the far right of monarchism?
Horsehoe theory is misguided itself, it was pitched purely to distance liberalism from fascism when historically they are linked, and to demonize those who support collectivization over privatization. Read Blackshirts and Reds.
“My own entitlement and vindictive emotional state is far more important than broad policy measures to make the best outcomes for the most people.” - Tankies 🤝 Nazis
edit: I will forever smirk that over a third of the people who read this felt “Well they don’t understand that MY emotions are special, the unrealistic things I want are more important than any of those other things! How dare they equate my feelings with those of nazis, those creatures weren’t even human, unlike me!”
“I support genocide”
Anti-tankies 🤝 Nazis
" The Holo-incident is not THAT bad" Tankies 🤝 Nazis
Comparing a famine caused by poor harvests across eastern europe and exacerbated by poor management to the fucking holocaust is wild.
“poor management” is one hell of a way to put it.
I mean, even the Holocaust could also be said to boil down to poor management if we’re just doing shitty arguments.
The holocaust was the result of pretty effective management, only possible with the latest technology, courtesy of IBM.
What lesson do libs and anarchists take away from the holodomer anyway? Don’t try to redistribute grain or stop hording during a famine?
Not just wild, also a form of Holocaust denial.
Man, tankie really doesn’t mean anything anymore does it?
